2011 Roomster rear door handle not working
The wire that clips on the handle just got unclipped. Try to open - remove the protecting cap with a trim tool. After that, while you pull the handle (a second person would be a good help) try with a long nose pliers to grab the wire and put it back in place. If the wire is broken then you will need to follow the door lock replacement procedure so to replace the broken wire on both sides, handle and door lock respectively.

AC not working
Have you check the gas level. It probably needs re-gas. I have the same issue in my wife's 2000 Megane Coupe. It has somewhere a slight leak and it need re-gassing every summer.

Roomster Roof Rails Wanted
If you find them then you will need the fiitting pattern as well. Roof rails part number is LAH 770 001 Template part number is LAH 770 011 Both are quite pricey and then you have to remove the headliner and drill the roof. So, no mistakes allowed. Here is a fitting video without the pattern, and in a LHD car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBXDfqOdTq8

Broken headlight adjustment screws
There is no replacement part as far as I know, but as I had the same issue with the height adjustment screw, what I did was to remove the protection cap of the screw and adjust it using the nut from the back side of the headlight. It is the rectangle thingy inside the red circle on your picture. It's been held by two torx screws.

A couple of issues with a Roomster.....
Before replacing the door lock, take a look inside the plastic bellows between driver's door and A pillar. 90% you have some wires split in there. There is no amber headlight icon. Maybe it is the oil icon or if your car is diesel the fuel pre heating icon. Maybe a photo of that icon will help us more.

Door open warning light stays on
It is a micro switch inside the lock. So you have to dismantle the lock into pieces in order to reach it. It is doable but time consuming and quite difficult. This is all over the locks of the car. But before dismantling anything, I suggest to check for split wires either on the boot's gaiter on the top left, or at the drivers A pillar inside the rubber gaiter from A pillar to door.

Driver's door won't unlock!
First check inside the bellows at your driver's door if there are any split wires. If there are not then you might need a new door lock.

2003 4x4 1.8T (ARX) stalling when in traffic, tough to start and high idle after
Try with your ELM scan tool to see if there is any error number. In our cars this can be caused by a bunch of things as you have already discovered. I had that (or similar) issue with my wife's 2000s Mergane Coupe 1,4 and it was the throttle body sealing ring. It was dried out letting air came into with all awkward issues. High revs, stalling, sometimes low power, sometimes over power etc. Replaced the O-ring of the throttle body and car purrs like a kitten now.

My 2011 roomster intro and help wanted
You don't have to remove door card to inspect the cables. Just pop off the bellows edge from the A pillar side and then see if there are any broken cables.

Key fob
Underneath boot's carpet there is a sticker. The same sticker should be at the first page of car's service book or owner's manual. It is full of codes. Visit http://igorweb.org/equidec.aspx insert these codes and you will get back a full list of your car's equipment.

Thinking of buying a 2014 Roomster Scout
You will find excellent condition cars. This one is a big no for that amount of money. I would buy it for half of the money they ask. Mine was a 2011 model, not scout, but she was in mint condition when i sold her.

Hi, for passenger's window check for broken cables inside the bellows between A pillar and driver's door. It is the most common culprit amongst vag cars.

AEE whining, mental health in danger!
I think i have the same noise at my 1.8 20vt arx engine. No fault codes or dash lights. In my case i suspect the water pump. Yet temp is fine. Plus it is not there every day.

Air con noise
Mate, they do replaced the ac pump with a new one but the noise was the same. I assume it is because the same ac pump is used for 1.9tdi and 1.8t engines is a bit noisy for the 1.2tsi. As long as you have your ac circuit full of gas and you get cold air, everything is fine.

Issues with central locking
The first thing you have to check is the wiring inside the plastic bellows of the A pillar of the car at driver's side. Most of the time cables do split and any kind of weird issues occurs.
